If there’s a sweet spot between classic Upper West Side style and liveable contemporary design, then this Manhattan family home, renovated by Rachel Sherman of Rachel Sloane Interiors for first-time homeowners, has found it.
The lateral apartment, although a new build, echoes the graceful architectural detailing of neighboring pre-war properties, but with a one-of-a-kind edge. In this modern home, gracious archways are lined in oak; joinery is clean and graphic and the artwork is just as likely to be a sculptural chair as a traditional wall-mounted piece.
